*** lurk mode off ***
I finally got around to installing a new rear hatch seal on the
squareback. It looks beautiful, but doesn't seal! Has anyone done
this successfully?
The seal is shaped like a "V" with a sideways cut at the base that
you glue to the body seam. My problem is the outer arm of the V
doesn't contact the hatch most of the perimeter. I'm getting major
exhaust coming inside at speed.
The seal is from West Coast Metric, listed as a Karman Ghia front
hatch seal. I used 3M adhesive, so I don't think it's coming off for
a retry... It seems as if I should have held the seal up away from
the body as it dried?
